RE: RRE: "the sound of the hall before the first note was played"?

Sure, most recordings are done with fabricated soundstage & so you are therefore writing off that MQA can have any affect on these recordings. On what basis? Because you have decided to isolate & focus on one aspect that Harley & Atkinson reported as being the only improvement that MQA brought to the recording?

This seems a very simplistic & biased approach, if you ask me

I believe you could benefit more by getting over your obvious ire & examine what MQA might be doing that could be responsible for the increased realism of the hall ambience experienced by Harley & Atkinson.

From my reading of Harley's piece, I believe two technical focusses were being followed in MQA - improved noise stability & decreased temporal blur. Both of these factors are of great interest to me & I could well see them being responsible for the perceptual improvements reported, so far in hearing MQA
